So this is my A18 Electron. I didn't know much about the brand but heard good things and took a chance on a ebay listing. It's been a faithful beast for sure. Very tight geo as you can see, and faster than all hell. A few funny things... a Sugino 75 bb will cause the spider to rub and the front wheel will rub when run all the way down in the fork. Pretty minor. Love this thing and ride it rain or shine, all the time.
